A senior Egyptian official has reportedly mockingly demanded that Europe take in one million Gazan refugees if it cares “about human rights so much”, as Cairo continues to grow ever...
Sorry if this was unclear. Was Egypt suggesting that the EU should let in more people from Ukraine? Like how the EU suggested Egypt should let in more people from Palestine.
But it would be pretty out of line for Egypt to tell the EU to accept more people from Ukraine, right? That’s what they’re getting at. The reason Egypt is annoyed by this is because their resources are being volunteered by someone else.
To move out of a country, you need to give up your possessions and you need to have some money to pay a few things on your way without being able to work.
EU, especially Germany has encoded free asylum for people who have to flee a country in their constitution. What do you want more?
Everyone is looking at Egypt and Jordan. These are the next countries that could act. But they are shitting at the EU. Well, fuck those hypocrites.
Do Egypt and Jordan not already have Palestinian refugees? I know Jordan definitely does. And it’s not small number; it’s hundreds of thousands, maybe even a million or more. Though according to Wikipedia, at least Jordan has given most Jordanian citizenship.
With regards to Egypt, can they handle that number of refugees? 2 million Gazans? That’s a lot of people. And it’s not like Egypt is some super wealthy country. And the Sinai isn’t exactly a great place to host 2million peolpe.
I don’t think there’s a single country that can readily accept that many refugees in short order, while properly feeding and housing them, and integrating them, without experiencing massive issues for both citizens and refugees.
That’s not to say that it’s right for Egypt to snipe at the EU, especially with a comment like that. But it’s not like either country can realistically deal with additional refugees. That’s part of what makes this whole thing a shitshow. There are few good options. And the few options that are good or better, people or governments refuse.
Just another day of EU being proven hypocrites once again.
Since the war in Ukraine started, the EU accepted more than four million refugees from Ukraine. Because that’s what you do as the next countries.
You know what the EU didn’t do? Shit on Egypt for not taking refugees from Ukraine. Because that would have been stupid, right? Right?

Well, let’s just take a look at the article…
Oh, look, it’s literally in the first half of the title!

Weil, no. But maybe because the EU already fucking does so?
